Got 26,000 plus on my '08 and I notice when the engine gets hot the accessory belt starts to squeak. Anybody else notice this ? Is it pause for concern?

Not yet on my '08 @ 23K But, I would be concerned if the "engine gets hot" unless you meant to say... "...when the engine gets up to normal operating temperature".
Again, if the temperature gage is beyond normal I would have a concern. If it is just the "squeak", there must be an adjustment for that.

Yes I meant normal opperating temp. I just switched to 0W20 synthetic at the last oil change and did not notice the squeak before. I dont see how that could be related though.

Dang, the engine must be really running quite with the 0W20 synthetic....guess you will need to turn up the volume on the radio! :rolleyes:
